"just because she's sweet / doesn't mean that she's the one / who'll be cooking everyday / just waiting for the sun / burning with our teeth / are shining bright down to our gums / when I wake up / we're alone again..."
Cool bohemian guitar strums pushed by vintage organ sounds, "When I Wake Up" by A.M. Rodio, the musical moniker of Brooklyn based singer / songwriter / musician Asa Marder, feels fueled by the need to stretch artistic muscles and heal cathartic bones. The sound, like a tapestry of lost and found taped memories, organic 70's garden rock and 80's indie orchestrations, painted with vintage organ sounds, bedroom pop / emo guitar strums and hush vox feels, quite frankly, like pure love, like lazy mornings between work days. I love the sound here.
"This is a song about God, off an album of love songs dedicated to my brother who passed away a couple years ago."

Asa Marder’s curiosity for nostalgia and old school pop music are both key inspirations behind A.M Rodio — with a love for analog and experimental recording, he creates melodic earworms that are both timelessly catchy and emotionally resonant. Marder’s most recent releases are two coupled concept albums, As Beloved and So Below, both exploring themes surrounding his brother’s death. Listening to them, you’ll find nostalgic pop harmonies influenced by the soundtrack of their shared childhood in New York and instrumentation, love, and grief that buries itself into your heart. -Gabby Lucas
Marder shares:
"I think 'As Beloved' an album of nostalgic love songs dedicated to my late brother Ezra has a lot of heart and originality."
